Speed Camera fines now in effect

Cop cars are very visible and will be reported on Waze right away. And this thing is very discrete.
Waze doesnt track cars in motion. Every cop car you be a ticket machine whenever it was out on the roads.
 
Waze is helpful but I find that in many cases the cop has already left the reported location.
I treat marked cops more as an indication that there was a cop in the area. If they are not at the marked location, very often they are not far down the road (a stop or two have probably happened) or on the other side working their way back.

In the beginning, they said it was only going to be in school zones and side streets. Most of these are obviously in major thoroughfares. All this does is slow the flow of traffic to a crawl and trigger road rage., and obviously be a cash cow for the city.

Big surprise there. I am surprised that afaik, no municipality has yet declared their entire landmass a community safety zone. I thought that would happen quickly.
 
Once they incorporate facial recognition.
The cameras are shooting your back not your front. A flash to capture your face would be far more dangerous than beneficial. Facial recognition isnt great at the best of times. Shooting through a window into a vehicle to a person that is often wearing a hat, glasses, mask etc is going to be an expensive useless picture.
 
Interesting. Guelph did a study in 2014. Speed limits were lowered from 50 km/h to 30 km/h on 53 streets with school zones. Average vehicle speed decreased by 1.2 km/h. Game-set-match. Signs are for fundraising/political pandering. If you want to actually affect travel speed, I still say road design is the proper approach but I will concede that ruthless enforcement will also cause a significant portion of traffic to slow down. Signs do nothing.

The most dangerous drivers in my neighbourhood are the parents dropping their kids off at school, across the street.
